<![CDATA[Data is information that is kept very confidential because it contains important information about the company or agency. Computers are currently the main component in the company that is able to store data, speed up work, improve the quality and quantity of services, simplify the transaction process, and others. But in terms of computer security still has several loopholes that allow a person or group to easily retrieve data or information on the computer. To avoid theft and manipulation of data, it is necessary to implement a security system. Cryptography is the study of how to change information from normal conditions / forms (can be understood) into a form that cannot be understood. One method that can be used to secure messages / information is the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). The application of the AES cryptographic algorithm in securing data at the Pematangsiantar Mayor's Office shows that this algorithm can generate encryption that cannot be understood by humans and produces the exact decryption with the initial plaintext input.]]>
